20% tint - Honda CRZ Forum: Honda CR-Z Hybrid Car Forums

rondo22 · 03-08-2011, 01:35 PM

Just got my windows tinted over the weekend. I went with 20% tint this time around. I did all the windows but the little back window. It is already dark and I think that bit of visibility will help. He offered to put it on later at no cost if I changed my mind. There is a before and after but the before is a little tough to see with the glare.

Before the tint:

After with 20%:

Looks dam good!
I just recently had to take the tint of my front windows. Got tired of these small town police pullin me over everyday about my tint. Same cops at that. No ticket but all the drama so I said f it. Stupid small town n Cali.

Thanks man. I debated going to 20% but thats what I had in my A4 for 3 years and never got pulled over for it. Hopefully I continue to have some good luck but never know i guess. I think the risk is worth the reward in this situation.

Sounds like the cops in your town got nothing better to do.

Is not that the cops have nothing better to do, they're doing their job.

Just an expression but really it can depend on where you live and it may not be that high on many priority lists for them. I mean I have been pulled over with 20% in my old car and of course I had to roll the window down but he didn't say one word about the tint on any visible windows. I don't want to jinx myself either so I'll shut up now...
